Ivanka Trump has an office of her own in the White House?

Courtesy of AP: 

Cementing her role as a powerful White House influence, Ivanka Trump is working out of a West Wing office and will get access to classified information, though she is not technically serving as a government employee, according to an attorney for the first daughter. 

Since President Donald Trump took office, his eldest daughter has been a visible presence in the White House, where her husband, Jared Kushner, already serves as a senior adviser. On Friday, she participated in a meeting on vocational training with the president and German Chancellor Angela Merkel. 

Jamie Gorelick, an attorney and ethics adviser for Ivanka Trump, said Monday that the first daughter will not have an official title, but will get a West Wing office, government-issued communications devices and security clearance to access classified information. Gorelick said Ivanka Trump would follow the ethics rules that apply to government employees.

Is this a good time to say WTF?

Yeah I am pretty sure this is where you say WTF?

So exactly what qualifies Trump's daughter to have an office in the West Wing of the White House?

I mean really, what has she done to deserve it?
Oh yeah, that's right.

  1. Since everyone else seemed to fail---Ivanka is there to administer her father his new meds and break his phone when he starts to tweet. She will make sure Bannon only poisons her poor idiot father half the time. She will be the one who keeps her lunatic old man from insulting world leaders, lying about former "real" presidents and slow his licking of Putin's ass in public. She is now the official Keeper.

    Scary and creepy.

      I think that's about it. But Ivanka should not have access to classified information without a thorough vetting even if her main job is to keep her father calm. One would think that her husband would not be in favor of this. They do have small children and her father has treated her and talked publicly about her inappropriately over the years.

    2. KellyAnne better watch out! Ivanka appears to be the light of Donny's life and untouchable. I don't anticipate much criticism..or we'll be seeing men walking around with broken limbs. Ivanka is Donny's Achilles Heel.

      I am a little surprised that Trump has brought her into the light; insulate her from Comey. After all the FBI investigation has been going on since July, Aug, Sept., Oct., Nov., Dec., Jan., Feb., and March.....

    They need Ivanka close by to calm him down and stop the crazy tweeting. We shall see if that works when she and hubby observe Shabbat.

    Ivanka has been a business woman. Being a business man was enough to elect Trump as president. Half of our country disliked politicians choosing a "successful" business man in spite of his enormous short comings and chronic lying.

    The Trump's act as if they are royalty entitled to rule. The adult children are as unethical as the father. Ethics to them probably is a sign of weakness. They are adept at circumventing laws.

      My state has had two "businessmen" as governors in the past fifty years. Both have been disasters. Businessmen are not good politicians and they are not good officeholders. Running a state, like running the country, is complicated beyond the ken of the business world. Trump has shown in barely two months what a disaster his "business" acumen is.

      5:39 - My state has had 2 Hollywood actors as governors. Neither one of them was a very good governor, although popular.

      Might as well face it, running the government is not like business or show business.

      Beagle mom at 5:39 am: you just reminded me about Snyder's new bridge to Canada. Slimy ran on the promise of a secret plan to fix Michigan's economy. But he would not tell it unless he got elected. People fell for that! Anyway, after he implemented an income tax on pensions and hired expensive city managers including the ones who changed Flint's water supply and shut off electricity to downtown Detroit on Halloween. I could go on except all that distracted me from the bridge to Canada. I moved out of state two years ago and don't keep up with Michigan news.

    It's okay if Trump says it's okay. With the base, that is!

    Read this opinion piece that looks at the mindset of the Trump supporters and brings into focus how tough it's going to be to get through to them:

    1) She knows he has mental illness/dementia/syphillitic brain nd she is his handler.
    2) She is every bit the psychopathic narcissist he is and feels she is absolutely entitled to a job in daddy's new company, as she always has.
    3) Combination of 1&2.

    after seeing footage shown on RMS of the view from a Trump hotel in some former soviet coutry - which was not the Trump hotel- but her claiming that it was - shows she is a fucking psychopathic narcissistic liar like daddy.

    Brother Eric tRump, a carbon copy of daddy said that Ivanka would make a great president, since she is smart and beautiful!!I have doubts about either case. I do not think she is beautiful, her head is shaped just like Olive Oyl's, and when she has her hair tied back, it is glaringly obvious. If acting like Lolita for daddy is smart, then I guess she is.

      She will eventually look as coarse and used up as her mother. I think they reflect the monster donnie's poisonous effect on them.

      She really missed being good-looking but it doesn't seem to bug her as much as it does bygone Barbie of the Wasilla area.

    They have an unnatural father-daughter relationship. Besides the pictures of young Ivanka grinding on her fathers lap, he has asked whether it was wrong to be more attracted to his daughter than his wife, or, if she wasn't his daughter perhaps they would be dating, or, patting her ass at the Republican convention. Among other things, he is also a pervert when it comes to Ivanka.

    "WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Russian President Vladimir Putin a decade ago and proposed an ambitious political strategy to undermine anti-Russian opposition across former Soviet republics, The Associated Press has learned. The work appears to contradict assertions by the Trump administration and Manafort himself that he never worked for Russian interests.

    Manafort proposed in a confidential strategy plan as early as June 2005 that he would influence politics, business dealings and news coverage inside the United States, Europe and the former Soviet republics to benefit the Putin government, even as U.S.-Russia relations under Republican President George W. Bush grew worse. Manafort pitched the plans to Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska, a close Putin ally with whom Manafort eventually signed a $10 million annual contract beginning in 2006, according to interviews with several people familiar with payments to Manafort and business records obtained by the AP. Manafort and Deripaska maintained a business relationship until at least 2009, according to one person familiar with the work.

    "We are now of the belief that this model can greatly benefit the Putin Government if employed at the correct levels with the appropriate commitment to success," Manafort wrote in the 2005 memo to Deripaska. The effort, Manafort wrote, "will be offering a great service that can re-focus, both internally and externally, the policies of the Putin government.""

    Hey- can the SqueezeDaddy's daughter pimp the new Trump hotels from the WH? If she uses her own phone it's all ok amiright?

    Danziger, who took over Trump's hotel business in August 2015, said he plans to open 50 to 100 Scion hotels in three years.

    The Trump family has reportedly applied for rights to use the name Scion in many different countries, according to the AP, including China, Indonesia and Canada.

    Danziger said new investors in Scion would undergo an "exhaustive, thorough review to make sure, for instance, they're not offering sweetheart deals to the Trump family to curry favor with the president."

      To be entirely fair, let's ignore the assumption that "Chelsea would be in the same place."

      Let's just assume that you know, Lou Sarah, what ass-u-me means.

    I don’t care what her attorney says; she will be a government employee. So it makes me wonder what Ivanka thinks she can get away with by saying she isn’t one. Ethics? What about vacationing with putin’s girlfriend, security risk?

    Her “salary” should go to paying for secret service. Where there are trump’s there has to be some con game going and I would hardly take advice about ethics from one of their attorneys.

We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news."
